Product Specification
PE42423
Product Description
The PE42423 is a HaRP™ technology-enhanced
absorptive 50Ω SPDT RF switch designed for use in high
power and high performance WLAN 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac
applications such as carrier and enterprise Wi-Fi Products,
supporting bandwidths up to 6 GHz.
This switch features high linearity which remains invariant
across the full supply range. PE42423 also features
exceptional isolation, high power handling and is offered in
a 16-lead 3x3 mm QFN package. In addition, no external
blocking capacitors are required if 0V DC is present on the
RF ports.
The PE42423 is manufactured on Peregrine’s
UltraCMOS
®
process, a patented variation of silicon-on-
insulator (SOI) technology on a sapphire substrate.
Peregrine’s HaRP™ technology enhancements deliver
high linearity and excellent harmonics performance. It is
an innovative feature of the UltraCMOS
®
process, offering
the performance of GaAs with the economy and
integration of conventional CMOS.

Exceeding absolute maximum ratings may cause
permanent damage. Operation should be restricted
to the limits in the Operating Ranges table.
Operation between operating range maximum and
absolute maximum for extended periods may
reduce reliability.

Product Specification
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
When handling this UltraCMOS
®
device, observe
the same precautions that you would use with
other ESD-sensitive devices. Although this device
contains circuitry to protect it from damage due to
ESD, precautions should be taken to avoid
exceeding the rating specified.
Latch-Up Avoidance
Unlike conventional CMOS devices, UltraCMOS
®
devices are immune to latch-up.
Switching Frequency
The PE42423 has a maximum 25 kHz switching
rate. Switching frequency describes the time
duration between switching events. Switching time
is the time duration between the point the control
signal reaches 50% of the final value and the point
the output signal reaches within 10% or 90% of its
target value.
